With wedding themes becoming a popular choice there is also a rise in the use of ethnic styled jewelry as weddings are themed around a particular cultural influence. Carved gemstones & Thai silver are a good choice for Asian & Far East themes, whilst gold & rubies are the focus for an Indian wedding theme. Brides who are getting married in an exotic destination are also looking to their chosen location for inspiration for their jewelry.
Traditionally brides would air on the side of caution when it came to wedding jewelry, choosing simple & small pieces to accessorize their wedding outfit. But the trend this year will see large dramatic pieces such as ornate earrings, taking center stage Chandelier earrings, ornate crystal chokers & multi row crystal bracelets are all popular choices. Don’t worry though if you find this look too much for your own personal tastes. You can stay on trend with smaller, elegant pieces or just choose one jewelry piece such as a pair of earrings or crystal bracelet.
Vintage pieces are still a big look & you will find that vintage style has spilled over into the costume jewelry market too. Stick to the old adage that less is more & choose just one feature piece of jewelry such as a crystal choker. You then add in simple timeless classics like a pair of crystal stud earrings to compliment it. Experiment with various looks before the wedding day to find the right combination & look for you.
A splash of color is a key trend this year & you can use your jewelry choices to great effect here. A large colored crystal brooch on a vintage style dress or multi colored stone bracelet can add just the right hint of color without overpowering your whole look. Vintage style crystal brooches are a great accessory for your bridesmaids & can double as thank you gifts as well.
Whatever your choices, shop around for the best prices. Check out high street stores & online sites like Ebay or specialist wedding jewelry sites. There is plenty to choose from out there & at prices to suit every pocket.
